A Valentine's Heart Day Celebration

I love planning parties for my children and their friends. With Valentine's Day just a few days away, I decided to design a Valentine'sHeart Day Celebration for my youngest two to share with a few of their friends. I used the traditional Valentine's color scheme of red, pink, and white along with the traditional heart elements and tried to give it my own SHEEK twist. I created a pom pom backdrop for the favor table and another for "artwork" behind the food table. Hearts were sprinkled throught the decor, along with a little happiness and LOVE!

Here is the favor table. I made a pom pom backdrop to add LOTS of color. A small white tree held hearts filled with valentine's beads for the kids to make a Valentine's necklace. The favor bags held a special treat for each child to take home.

The food table also featured a white tree with hearts as well as a felt heart adorning each chair, heart place settings, heart drink stirrers, chocolate-covered pretzels, individual mailboxes for each child to personalize, and another favor bag for each child.

These Chocolate-covered pretzels are super easy to make. Here's how it did it.

Welcome

Welcome and thanks for stopping by! I am Sarah, owner and designer of Sheek Shindigs. Growing up, our family enjoyed celebrating life's special moments and events together. Now, as a mother of 3 and someone who loves to entertain, I find myself looking for reasons to CELEBRATE with my own family. Whether planning a birthday party, baby shower, or play date, I enjoy creating unique and memorable experiences for everyone involved. The Sheek Shindigs blog was created to inspire others to create their own "sheek" shindigs and celebrate life's special moments.
